Former Super Eagles Captain, Austin Jay Jay Okocha has blamed Coach Stephen Keshi for the team’s goalless draw against Iran in their first match during the World Cup.

Okocha said, “Keshi should be held responsible for the way the team played. Before the match he said African teams are tactically not disciplined and he did not bring anything new to the table.

“His changes were poor. He took out Moses and brought in Ameobi. I think that was a wrong change.

“We saw how Osaze came in and showed a lot of creativity. That is the kind of thing we expected. Iran match would have been our strongest point but we missed it.”
